Hi dreamy, I am reviewing OG 12, OG 11 and Verbal 2nd edition error logs. I am focusing mainly in verbal. I do believe I can some how increase my quants to 49. I have seen your experience thread as well. Good luck!

I did Kaplan online event conducted today and scored only 660 (Q44 and V42). 5 mistakes in quants and 7 in verbal. I was very disappointed to find out that this test was not even CAT. I should have listened to Gunpreet and used this time for MGMAT CAT 6.

I do know that that Kaplan has CATS if you enroll in course.

I did not get a chance to post my updates daily but by this time tomorrow I will be driving to the exam center.
For today, I will be reviewing OG error logs and AWA.

I am hoping that I will cross 700 tomorrow. I will post updates tomorrow after the test.

I simply went out and ate some food when I was nervous. I normally do not go to buffets, but I went to 2 consecutive buffets prior to the test day. This helped me to relax a lot and it took my mind of the test.


Haha :-D

Well, Congratulations once again. Loved your debrief. It really is all about confidence.
All the best !

I just received my official score report. AWA score - 6.0 (91%).
Mainhoon had my split, but his score was 710. We both wrote the test in the same week. I am not sure how the scaled score gets converted into final GMAT score. Are there other factors considered such as no. of correct questions etc.
